What do LOB in box scores mean?
They can't mean the actual number, since I have seen 28 in a game where I batted 9 times.
The total is the sum of attributions to hitters, but IDK what those attributions mean. Anyone know?
More broadly, I am leaving way too many men on base, 2 or 3 in at least as many innings as not. 2/3 of the way through as the 1924 Senators, I am 1st in the A.L. in BA and 2nd in OBA and runs. I have accumulated ~1,550 hits and walks (don't see a way to find out errors) and scored ~550 runs. My GIDPs see vaguely normal. I think I'm running pretty aggressively--enough to get thrown out at home almost 1/2 the time. Playing more or less Sabermetrically, I practically never steal or bunt (I do squeeze with 1 out, not bases loaded, and decent bunt and baserunning values).
So is my problem just that this is team has little power (31 HRs so far, 5th in league)? Gap power is actually pretty good.
Or is there something I'm not thinking of?
